Who is Hassan Abbasi?


Raz Zimmt classifies him among the prominent figures of the radical right wing of persian politics, along with Mehdi Ta’eb, Alireza Panahian, Said Qasemi and Qasem Ravanbakhsh who all serve in the central committee of ‘Ammar Headquarters’, an IRGC-affiliated institution established in 2011. According to a 2012 report edited by Raz Zimmt, Abbasi is “one of the major theoreticians of the radical wing in the conservative camp and the Revolutionary Guards”.
